The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 1179 - 444: The Stingy Dad Is Here (Part 2)

Chapter 1179: Chapter 444: The Stingy Dad Is Here (Part 2)

"Dad, your delivery!"

A girl aged around seventeen or eighteen ran in from outside, carrying a backpack.

She was holding a black delivery bag, entering the door, changing her shoes while curiously asking, "Dad, what did you order?"

"Didn’t buy anything! I don’t trust those online things!"

An old man in his fifties shuffled out of the kitchen.

His clothing was very distinctive—

His top was a blue short-sleeved T-shirt with "XX Nucleic Acid" printed on it, paired with patched five-point shorts.

Yes, patched!

If it was just wearing an advertising T-shirt given by a store, that wouldn’t be considered too strange.

But clothes with patches!

Tsk tsk, it’s already the 2010s, and in a second-tier city like Provincial City, it’s quite unbelievable for someone to wear patched clothes!

Not just patched clothes, the old man’s socks revealed two big toes.

And his slippers, they were glued over and over.

Looking at the style, it’s at least a two-decade-old design!

The girl wasn’t too shocked seeing her dad like this.

Because she was already used to it, ever since she could remember, she’s known that she has a top-grade stingy dad.

Just how stingy?

There’s no such thing as "expiry date" for food at home!

Near-expiry food is the best, those juices and drinks, if they’re not expired by three to five months, they don’t deserve to appear at home!

The fruits are always the ugliest, rotten, and smallest.

The vegetables are always ones cleared out at the evening market.

And as for clothes at home, patched underwear, socks, or home clothes are the norm.

The TV at home is never watched, the fridge is off for twelve hours a day, and the water heater isn’t used unless necessary.

In short, it’s one word—save!

Save money to death, even after death, money shouldn’t be wasted!

"Then what’s this?"

The girl didn’t look at her dad’s bizarre clothes but shook the delivery bag in her hand.

There was no sound, feeling through the bag, it was hard and thick, likely a magazine or something.

This became even more impossible.

With her dad’s stingy style, unwilling to buy even books, how could he purchase even more useless, costly magazines?!

"I don’t know either. You open it and see!"

The old man scratched his head, he didn’t shop online, nor did he have relatives or friends sending him things.

He Yue: ...Dear dad, with that tightly stingy character of yours, it’s a wonder you have any relatives!

The old man didn’t know his daughter’s critique, even if he did, he wouldn’t care.

He is just stingy, so what?

If he weren’t stingy enough, how could he, an uneducated, unskilled rural person, buy a house in Provincial City and build such a large estate? 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

The young girl, also known as the stingy old man’s little daughter He Yue.

Hearing her dad’s words, she directly tore open the delivery bag forcefully, revealing a thick "magazine"!

"Hua Country People’s Health Report?"

Seeing the cover, He Yue’s eyebrows slightly furrowed.

This style, this title, clearly isn’t a legitimate magazine.

She looked carefully at some of the titles on the cover—

"The Medicinal Value of Snow Mountain Snow Lotus!"

"Experts’ Tips for Diabetic Patients!"

"Warning! XX Virus is Endangering Hua Country People’s Health!"

"Medical Authority Confirms, Goat Milk Powder’s Value Far Exceeds Cow Milk Powder!"

What are these things?

It’s exactly like those sensational online headlines.

Moreover, He Yue sensed some kind of "virus" scent.

She widened her eyes and looked at the old man, urgently asking, "Dad, you’re not superstitious about some health products, are you?!"

Though her dad is very stingy, unwilling to eat even a mouthful of meat usually.

But the news had said that many frugal elders are coaxed by health product salespeople, often buying thousands, or even tens of thousands, worth of health products.

And some con artists running scams under the guise of collecting, tricking thrifty elders into buying some junk.

Her dad, ahem, loves small gains the most!

Often, those deceived started with a "greed" character!

He Yue truly feared her stingy dad being shrewd on small matters but falling for major scams.

"What health products, I just saw someone at the park setting a stall and left a number and address. They just sent the magazine home!"

Seeing the "medical magazine" in his daughter’s hand, the old man finally recalled.

He didn’t believe in any health products.

But this kind of magazine is quite good.
